According to notes in the album this is the automobile race winner at Brighton Beach, NY, August 8, 1907. 

From Robert Dick: I would say he looks like Fiat driver Emanuele Cedrino.

From Don Capps: The winner of the Brighton Beach 24 Hour event was Montague Roberts with William McLivrid using a Thomas 60 HP.

There were several crashes and as a result there was one death and a  number of injuries to the crews and spectators.

This was an eBay find with pages from an album that also contains photos of the New York Skyline, Atlantic City beach, and (I think) the Iron Pier.
